Brazilian catwalk golden girl Gisele Bundchen is replacing model Petra Nemcova in Rampage’s spring/summer 2009 ad campaign.

Rampage, makers of dresses, sportswear, footwear, lingerie, and accessories, has hired the world’s highest paid supermodel to front their clothing for the next two years.
“Gisele was so involved with these shots,” said Dari Marder, chief marketing officer for Rampage. “She epitomizes the Rampage woman – beautiful, sexy, confident and independent.
“It was interesting to see what she picked out to wear — these pieces were some of our bestsellers. She picked the photographer, the hair stylist, makeup artist and she helped us craft the campaign, which is very unique for us.”
“What I like about Rampage is that it works for everyone,” was what Bündchen, 28, had to say about the junior sportswear brand.
The worldwide campaign will hit us with a bang on a Times Square billboard in April and later thru fashion glossies such as Cosmopolitan, In Style and Marie Claire.

Fashion icon Victoria Beckham is gracing the latest edition of Russian Vogue experimenting with what she apparently hopes to be a hot new fad — sucking the thumb.

“Forties and 50s underwear played a big influence on the collection, but the inspiration is me,” said the 34-year-old mother of three. “I have tried every one of the dresses on, lived in them, to work out what feels right. I hope the silhouette is what every woman wants to wear.”
In the February 2009 issue of the magazine, Beckham appears in a series of her own outfits including red satin with matching high heels and strappy sandals and fitted black dresses. The pictures were shot by Solve Sundsbo.

British celebrity model Daisy Lowe is the latest DKNY (Donna Karan New York) girl.

Come to think of it, Lowe has been a regular at hitting headlines for the spring/summer 2009 fashion scene. She banged her way in with ads for Marc by Marc Jacobs, followed by Pringle of Scotland, and later made fresh waves by appearing nude in Paradis magazine.
Lowe certainly looks totally cool in her new base, New York. The shot was taken by The Sartorialist, Scott Schuman, aimed to reflect New York’s street style. I love the pose she strikes a pose in a khaki jumpsuit, white-heeled boots and a pair of aviators.
The 19-year-old is the daughter of fashion designer Pearl Lowe and Gavin Rossdale, the front man for the band Bush.
